senior correspondent i guess they have a chance to interview those taliban representatives you've got to look at this from their perspective just a few days ago they stood on the brink of a breakthrough with regard to the after more than 19 years of bloodshed they were talking they almost had a deal and then trumped decides to call off the negotiations to kill off the negotiations citing an american soldier apparently killed in a taliban released it related incident the taliban themselves are blameless either because. they also refused to attend the talks. meeting with trump and in america unless they had side deal in place with the charges of that was slim to none going in but now we've come to a situation where it's all broken down and things things are looking awful i put it to the taliban. why how would you expect trump to negotiate with you when you're
5:03 pm
actively killing his troops as you speak to him the next day with mr tucker consider this a. negotiation he mr barak his father is that he says he admitted that he. doesn't other well so if big kill thousands of us why we cannot kill one of there were 2 other so this will go away he would have preferred never submitted to different people we have 2 different enough of people of other somewhere over there that really really what we have to different or people the way the taliban sees it is that they're defending themselves in of ghana stand in their country against foreign occupation forces against the united states which is which is invaded their country so they say that they won't end the insurgency yet they still understand that there is no military solution to this conflict that ultimately they're going

5:05 pm
recovered from the course of the american service not really it was usually did not want based on the day it will. be compared to a different course it would have to do this for a movie is the decades of fighting i would have guessed they must have had enough of it by now they say they want peace and it must have been difficult to have that taken away when it seemed they were close what do they do next while it's as he said at the end there and i asked them you know. weary of the death and the killing in the bloodshed in the war 2 decades almost and they said no they said. they're ready to fight for a 100 years more that they'll continue defending their country they'll continue the insurgency but they understand that that won't end the war that the united states one can leave afghanistan just just by military force alone and they understand
5:06 pm
that negotiated settlement is the only chance either side has of vending this where there was discussion on the debate is over vertical to decide they lifted the . ceasefire between ask an american forces and give a serious message that american forces. there on. the internet only wish it were sort. of only pushers of the cease fire. and to progressive cease fire and also other donors that don't think issues can be discussed. as i said surprise when i met them not what i expected nevertheless they're still looking for different avenues to. follow through with negotiations russia has been playing host to a number of meetings there are also other venues. around the world that are ready to bring the afghan government the united states and the taliban together to
5:07 pm
provide a platform for them to talk to each other and hopefully bring about an end to this terrible war that's taken so many lives. senior u.s. journalists are again fighting over russia with one t.v. network now suing the host of another describing them as paid russian propaganda trying to explain. here comes a familiar voice which becomes even more familiar if we hear words like russia or russian the most obsequiously approach trump right wing news outlet in america really it literally is page correction propaganda for those who still didn't recognize that that was really literally rachel maddow speaking about the one american news network on her and this n.b.c. show i'll get to the point of reminding you how she keeps seeing russia everywhere in a moment but don't you think there must be someone out there who won't just swallow
5:08 pm
what the m s n b c star anchor says without hitting back with a decent jab well oh a ed is filing a defamation lawsuit they want 10000000 bucks one america is wholly operated and financed by the herring family in san diego they are as american as apple pie they are not paid by russia and have nothing to do with the russian government this is a false and malicious libel and they're going to answer for it in a court of law to tell you about the reason for when rachel maddow said really literally which is supposed to mean definitely no doubt shares staff with the kremlin that's another thing she said it's just that a one america journalist freelance work for a russian based news agency sputnik she got him busted so bad but as i've said earlier the number of times rachel maddow turned her show into a grand russian paranoia episode is just difficult to carry out.
5:09 pm
or about to find out if the new president of our country is going to do what russia wants. is under attack from the president from the presidents republican supporters and congress from the president conservative media supporters and also from the ongoing russian influence operation that it's. around . what would happen if russia killed the power in fargo today what would happen if all the natural gas lines that surface and falls just hoofed on the coal to stay in recent memory and it wasn't in our power whether or not to turn them back on no wonder that when some folks decided to put the m s n b c hosts russia gate obsession into a mathematical perspective they found she spent more time talking about russia than all other topics combined over a certain period. now you know what it takes to become the most watched hosts in
5:10 pm
all of cable news she got to that milestone last year but when step by step it gets revealed that a lot of what you were saying was just a flow of blah blah you make up to when views the consequences do start haunting you 1st the ratings gradually went down and then the actual conclusions of the pro blood to wet is on air this is what the viewers saw when rachel maddow 1st realized the probe wasn't going the russia gaiters way and so we know the logistics of how we got the notification that it did and obviously right now we have mostly just a ton of questions as to what miller's report says how complete it is who gets to see it who gets to decide who gets to see it and when. now here comes the lawsuit the one i mentioned nothing's decided yet but probably even more people will think twice next on the here really literally in that familiar voice.
5:11 pm
a visit by independent american journalists to syria despite downgrades from parts of the media which they travel to government held areas to assess the country's recovery i spoke to both to journalists. i'm staying in the old city of damascus by the eastern gate bob sharkey and i walked across the street across a highway into a neighborhood about a few 100 meters away that had been controlled for 4 months by jaish al islam the wahhabi militia backed by saudi arabia and met residents who had actually lived under their fear craddick rule who described kidnappings rape of women people being executed in the street for violating the theocratic rule and how happy they were to be finally freed from this gang what i was observing was a city and outside of the city that is much much safer since i last was there last and i was in syria was 2 years ago there were still fighting it was still on save
5:12 pm
there were checkpoints everywhere now that the government has taken back many areas especially around accidents baskets outside of damascus you can travel to the suburbs and beyond the suburbs without going through a 1000000 checkpoints not being worried about being kidnapped or being sniped moreover our life has gone to a reasonable degree back to normal for a lot of people. run your color travel to the capital damascus with them speaking to locals reserving serious recovery from terrorism they say they received no funding from the country's government allowing those angry visit with journalists from c.n.n. and the intercept to accuse them of white washing and government support it was some of the reactions this is some goebbels prancing around syrian government luxury tour posting tourist photos near torture centers and look the syrian refugees who can never return to their country with their fish can be tortured to death started to read
5:13 pm
a certain journalist's thread from inside damascus this am then found myself getting pell potations which progressed into spasms of rage how can anyone be so blindly credulous on the cossack's involved it is such a disgrace. l m a o ron and mocks are in damascus neither of them speak arabic yet they claim to be talking to many syrians there why aren't they disclosing who's translating for them and helping them mount. this is to be expected and so they're trying to intimidate americans or europeans and people from the west from coming here they're trying to break our cultural exchange between us and average people who just happen to live in the area controlled by the syrian government where most syrians live and what we've been able to see and report already has threatened the narrative that's been conveyed by western corporate media and a pack of kind of dime a dozen correspondents acting as state department i mean i think the people
5:14 pm
attacking us have an agenda they're either convinced that they're right or they're working on behalf of somebody else or both this isn't something we're we're that's new to us we're used to it i think it's why we can recognize an operation when we see one and this is if it's very quirky hated you know these people are talking in some d.m. group and coordinating against us and it's quite obvious and it's not surprising we expected it and i you know i think it's something that happens particularly any time anybody visits a government or the syrian government side. of syria and offers a realistic perspective they can expect to be attacked but more importantly i think the reason there are so outraged by me and max is because me and max tend to be quite effective in offering a different perspective and offering a reality on the ground kind of perspective. israel's prime minister binyamin netanyahu. offended the chief meeting went on for 3 hours security in the middle
5:15 pm
east iran and syria are among the topics up for debate reflection reports from such . as is there a 3rd these here alone and they're thirsting for michonne in the last 4 years in the belgian. international leader benjamin netanyahu has met more than any other leader during this time we were invited to film the beginning of their meeting both politicians were smiling while they entered the room and in their welcome speeches steve both were very positive about profound deep and good in fact relations between russia and israel. but when you look at it i'm not afraid to say that thanks to your efforts to a large extent our relations have reached new levels on security issues and military cooperation and we know how important that is especially taking into account the continuing threat from international terrorism. because there are 2 additional factors that play in the celebration of ties between our countries the
5:16 pm
carefully weighed policies of both of us and a strong connection between us we had a chance to talk to the israeli prime minister as international media adviser and he told us security concerns and discussions about that is the major reason behind this recent visit. to russia especially given he stressed iran's recent activity in syria and in the middle eastern region as a whole and we heard benjamin netanyahu talking about that as well let's take a listen. i really appreciate what you are saying all these real safety this is manifest that of the meetings we've had and with the recent meeting with the defense minister coordination with our military is always very important especially this time when we see the growing in terms of iran to use the territory of syria to attack us or to place their missiles they're both politicians also mentioned the upcoming israeli elections benjamin netanyahu visits russia while fighting
5:17 pm
a fierce reelection campaign at home and many say meeting widely reported may help him get more voters russian speaking for russian been easier. and some opposition figures even blame him for doing that on purpose that's all for the 1st time that we see him visiting russia had all of the elections in israel but we talked about that with the israeli prime minister is international media adviser and he told us there is no connection between netanyahu visit prime minister is always that the security of israel is not something which we time according to elections it's something that's ongoing all the time the iranian prisons throughout the middle east is growing they have presence in lebanon and in syria and in iraq causing a lot of instability the idea basically is to aim most of this aggression towards israel not only towards israel towards other parts of the middle east as well and the prime minister is concerned about. the growing role of uranium and their.
5:18 pm
proxies their terrorist proxies throughout the middle east and so the prime minister would like to discuss this with president putin. also because the president and russia have interests in syria and in the middle east and we would like to coordinated in the clashes between israel and and russia. heard of his meeting with the israeli prime minister vladimir putin was in the russian republic of dagestan marking a key anniversary where militia there managed to repel a terrorist attack and today he fulfilled a promise made 20 years ago. it was i mean it. was all it. did slow business it is you know she is the maid is the only don't you do what you've. set up a legitimate you've been given. your blood. she would be able to bust a move is it a live event because that is. what do.
5:19 pm
they do that there should. be a look at a british legit position back then the republicans under a massive terrorist incursion from chechnya 1270 people were killed 800 more injured more than 2 and half 1000 terrorists were eliminated seeing 2 decades have passed since the region was freed by joint civilian and military forces for putin it was fun little time to raise a glass. to do so much. because. there was. a. top u.s. lawmakers a pass the key vote to define the boundaries of
5:20 pm
a potential impeachment investigation of trump means the committee can designate certain hearings as impeachment hearings and empower staff to question witnesses republican members of the house furiously denounce the me. not even that but when inquiry some in the media is saying it's hard to know what we're doing here and that's exactly what i want to now so hearing about whether or not we have people come and give testimony afterwards the president can write us a letter in response this is more about defining our pen pal strategy for all of those covering this this is not anything special investigation that's already been completed moller hearing they saw it that was a flop if the majority wants to exercise the house's power of impeachment all you got to do is ask house to do so impeachment resolution could not pass the full house so this committee is trying to have its cake and eat it too you want to give
5:21 pm
the illusion of impeachment without the reality of it i want to go a long time to be able to say this welcome to fantasy. supporters of the probe that it will strengthen their chances of gathering evidence against the president on allegations of corruption and obstruction of justice but democrats have been sending mixed signals since the special counsel robot while the didn't find trump guilty that i'm open explains democrats seem to be rolling ahead with their efforts to remove donald trump from office the house judiciary committee called for procedures related to its investigation of the president's wrong doing now for a lot of people that seems to put the smell of impeachment into the air their records on the house judiciary committee are expected to vote on expanding the impeachment inquiry into president trump democrats taking formal steps towards impeachment this is it had been in korea in search of something to impeach president trump over so we've got $134.00 democrats voting to begin an impeachment
5:22 pm
inquiry what do they really mean it at this point the democrats can't even seem to agree on what's going on with the house judiciary investigation who have been in the midst of an impeachment investigation no we're not in an impeachment investigation. the house is investigating to determine whether or not there should be an impeachment investigation so why might the democrats seem to be a little bit reluctant well in 2020 it's not just the presidential race but there's also some local elections and it seems like impeaching trump isn't the best vote getter polls show that 72 percent of democrats favor impeaching donald trump but for the country overall 59 percent oppose and that seems like bad news for the new progressive socialist wing of the democrats that seem to have that their entire house on it remember this we're going to go in there really the mother from would love it if the different democrats tried to impeach him it's the kind of battle he
5:23 pm
loves the public is totally turned off it's not following this ready controversy at all so i think it would definitely play into trump's hands it will do the democrats very little good in the 2020 alexion and probably will actually wind up backfiring virtually impossible if he could be convicted in the senate and removed from office so it's just a it's a lot of hot air over nothing now the problem for the democrats in removing donald trump is that according to the u.s. constitution once the proceedings begin it would be the u.s. senate that would then vote to convict and remove the president the constitution requires a 2 thirds vote among the senators and the democrats don't come anywhere near that so what would the charges be and all the most common answer you'll get is obstruction of justice but there's a little bit of a problem with that we did not however make a determination as to whether the president did commit a crime so obstructing an investigation into something that you did not do now you
5:24 pm
could certainly lock up an average joe for that but it's a pretty weak case for driving a president from office some democrats even think that it would be bad for the country to impeach donald trump it's important for us to think about what is in the best interest of the country and the american people. and continuing to pursue impeachment is something that i think will only further tear our country apart speaker of the house nancy pelosi seems to be pouring cold water on the idea as well but she chooses her words very carefully take a listen when you go down a path like impeachment which is there if i said they could divide the country whatever decision we made in that regard would have to be done with our strongest possible hand the democrats have accused donald trump of being a criminal a traitor and a fascist they've got their supporters out for his blood but it looks like if they actually go for it this might backfire in the long term mop and ard see new york.
5:25 pm
dramatic reduction in carbon emissions and more energy from renewable sources that's what i believe merkel wants for the future and she's outlined germany's targets in front of car buses of the major motor show. listen yes we must reduce transport produce c o 2 emissions by 40 percent that's now 2030 target human electrum ability though is just as a truck for the future because cars will only be genuinely climate friendly once a look to city comes from renewable sources but we want 65 percent of our electricity supply to come from renewables by 2030. which turns the speech came a day after she used a key budget debates to call for more action on climate change but some experts warn more regulation could put your biggest economy in reverse gear these double quarter takes a look at the gloomy forecast. if there's any country that could be the poster child of a green political agenda it's most certainly germany it's a noble pursuit no doubt but the green vanguard is learning the hard way that
5:26 pm
everything has a price that's in those 3 is industrialized countries also need to be on the front line in terms of doing something to overcome our carbon footprint and stop changes in the climate or reverse the rise in temperature if we push for climate protection it will cost money this money's well spent if we are going or if i think it will cost us more money that's the truth doing nothing is no alternative the fact is that we will then pay more for the captains of germany's car industry responded to merkel's request with a resounding yes they unveiled their latest most futuristic electric cars in frankfurt after billions of euros of investment of course perhaps they were trying to take a step towards the flying cars of science fiction at any rate many are saying that paying for the future is only leading to the destruction of the present and i can include the green socialist ideology is running our country and taking away any chance we have for the future your so-called climate protection is nothing else
5:27 pm
than a monstrous steel industry realization program combined with variable job destruction you waste billions to avert imaginary doomsdays in the distant future we're not just hearing this kind of talk from politicians though a new report says that renewables are threatening shortages in germany's energy supply and the country hasn't even come close to its energy transition goals germany is missing most of its self-imposed targets for the energy transition by 2020 at the same time energy supply security is being jeopardized in the medium term by the decision to phase out nuclear and coal emissions germany's over reliance on wind and solar energy has created a big deficit at times of little wind or sun the government has imported energy from neighboring countries to avoid blackouts and just to balance 2900. energy budget germany had to foot a bill that skyrocketed to $38000.00 euros for a megawatt of power per hour as compared to just $64.00 euros in 2017 not to
5:28 pm
mention that every day germans pay the highest energy prices in all of europe we have to highest energy costs in the world the price for energy is the highest in the world because of this change of to supply system a situation is very ridiculous i mean they made a big fos last year for 20200 hectares of forest for a coal mine at the same time they're cutting thousands of hectares of forest for wind mails killing hundreds thousands of animals i mean this is no green policy i mean right now the situation what we have in germany is that the green party started as an environmental party but now they change. their climate used climate paranoia party which sacrifice everything for the climate situation and you know it doesn't matter human beings nature animals no losses are all losses are justified this energy crisis may have germany teetering on the brink of
5:29 pm
recession and to stay afloat it's going to need that world renowned powerhouse of an auto industry it's built instead carmakers are being pressured to produce expensive electric cars that don't even sell that well volkswagen chief already warned that perhaps this is all going to for the current campaign against individual mobility and conventional cars is reaching a threatening level instead of using petrol or diesel will basically use coal even if we're literally powered and in the worst case we'll even use league night but their idea of electric mobility to absurdity nevertheless environmental organizations are marching en masse on saturday joining them will be a brigade of cyclists calling for an end to the combustion engine hopefully it won't translate to an end to the german economy germany was a. very safe on energy supply and everything everybody's used to energy is always available but with getting more and more of it mails into the into the system the
5:30 pm
system gets more and more in stable and we have seen in the last month several times that a collapse of the energy supply system we passed by only very slightly governmental policy in germany is destructing our debate but one of our industry which is the car industry of course from germany for example works they announced already beginning of this year that they want to reduce 20000 people just because of the mobility only in germany it's a big economic game for all competitors i mean plants are closing down here in germany because of their regulations and reopen in china where they can produce the wood to unlimited. the mystery of what happened to a group of soviet hikers in the ural mountains back in 1959 it's something that still puzzles minds today now you too can explore the various theories surrounding the death of past incident.
